The Spirit

Spirit, from the Latin Spiritus, the breath

That invisible force that connects us to the world

Connects one to another

We respire

Conspire, breathe together

Find inspiration, breathe in

Aspire to new heights

Build spires toward the light, and the night sky

Perspire to make it happen

Energy and breath into sweat

Fire and air into water

Perspiration, transpiration, rooted and crowned we are grounded in these cycles like a tree in the forest

Aspire, respire, until you one day expire

Does breath ever really become air?

Or is the breath, the Spirit, always there?
